Dunraven: Lord of Estes Park, a Reader's Theater Production

Description

“Dunraven: Lord of Estes Park” is packed with 1870s Estes Park history, starting with the arrival of the Irish peer Lord Dunraven, a titled war correspondent, yachtsman, hunter and world traveler, who became so enamored with the area that he proceeded to buy it up for himself and his English friends to (allegedly and illegally) create a private hunting preserve and entertainment spot of his own. Noted English travel writer Isabella Bird and the infamous Rocky Mountain Jim (James Nugent) add their special colors to this historic drama, which ends with the first recorded murder in Estes Park.
